    So, I actually have a friend who had not been who ended up having to have it done at 30 years old for medical reasons. Apparently the experience was pretty hellish.

      I can imagine. The only reason people think it’s okay to do to infants is that they cannot complain about it at the time.

        I don’t defend it being done without need, but I’m still not mad at my parents over mine. It has still served me well for many years and has never received a complaint.

      Genuinely curious how the quality of sex diminishes, i’ve heard you lose a lot of sensitivity from it which is a bummer

        I’ve heard that the foreskin acts as “lube” so I’ve always wondered how that would be. Teenager me had some long weekends where things got pretty chafed down there.

        Don’t know, but I really can’t imagine sex being any more intense. I’m more than content with the me I have to work with and I believe the quality of my sex life is better than average.
